PT Surya Rengo Containers (SRC)

Rengo Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Kita-ku, Osaka; President & CEO:
Kiyoshi Otsubo) announces that P.T. Surya Rengo Containers (SRC), a
related company that conducts business in Indonesia, has opened its new Karawang Factory. This new plant is SRC’s fourth corrugated plant.
SRC is a joint venture company affiliated to Rengo and PT Indofood
CBP Sukses Makmur Tbk. Rengo holds a 40% stake in SRC, which provides
high-quality corrugated packaging to many important clients including
Japanese and multinational corporations, as well as major local
corporations.
Indonesia has the world’s fourth-largest population after China,
India, and the United States. It continues to experience remarkable
economic growth as an emerging nation, centering on domestic demand. Its
GDP growth rate in 2012 is predicted to be 6.0%,* and robust demand for
corrugated packaging is expected to continue in the future.
The Karawang Factory is
located inside the Karawang International Industrial City (Karawang,
West Java) on the outskirts of eastern Jakarta. Many foreign companies,
including Japanese corporations, have entered this area. The Karawang Factory,
with an annual production capacity of 60,000 tons, is one of
Indonesia’s largest corrugated plants. As such, SRC’s corrugated
packaging supply system in the Jakarta region has been further
strengthened. Together with its three existing factories in Jakarta,
Surabaya, and Semarang, SRC’s total annual production capacity has been
increased to 192,000 tons.
Rengo, as a “General Packaging Industry” (GPI), positions its
overseas operations at the core of its overall business. It is working
to strengthen its packaging business in Southeast Asia and China, and
has also constructed optimum, seamless packaging supply systems in
various areas inside and outside Japan. Since Rengo entered Indonesia in
1992, it has considered the country, a principal member of the
Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), an important strategic
base.
Rengo’s corrugated packaging manufacturing bases in Southeast Asia
currently span Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Vietnam.
Going forward, Rengo will continue working to further enhance its
corrugated packaging business, and to sustain growth that hinges on
economic development in the ASEAN region.
